Aren't you guys sick of these types of posts.....
 
I hope that your GPA is at least above a 3.8, and your science GPA needs to be above a 3.9 for you to have a shot...also, if I were you I might think about waiting until next year and really studying and taking the test over again...
 
Fortunately, you can take it again in three months before adcoms have sent out too many rejection letters - hurry up and schedule it, though! As mentioned above, be prepared to apply for next cycle. You might want to beef up your sub-par DAT scores with more shadowing and service. Good luck!

You really need to work hard on PAT and GC sections. rest are OK.
Or you have to explain it in your interview why you got less marks in those two sections.

Good luck 🙂
 
Why are you guys discouraging him???

Dude, your numbers are awesome. Definitely apply for this cycle. I think you have a good shot. Im sure you will get many acceptances.

I'll buy you a bullet if you supply the gun.
 
Did you go into this thing blind? Most people study months for this test - it looks like you just flipped through your class notes the day before and thought you'd be ok. I'm sorry to break it to you but its not that easy pal. Unless your gpa is 4.5+ you dont' have a shot- better luck next time. But don't let everyone discourage you - there is a little book that comes to mind called the Little Train That Could.

ROFL - brilliant 😛
 
Maybe dentistry just isn't for you. I would take a hard look at what you are good at. Look on the bright side of things....Dentists can always use a good assistant or two and a good janitor.

Keep your head up and meet with a guidance counselor!!
 
Definitely reconsider your career choice, dude. And maybe crack a book while you're at it. Sheesh.
 
yeah it is a joke, i took the DAT saturday and am pleased with my scores but they aren't near what those are... My lowest is a QR of 16 with an AA and TS of 20... funny posts though guys 🙂
